January 2018 Grant Votes

The Grants Committee has concluded the voting of the January 2018 round.
There were six proposals in this round.
**[Curating and improving Perl6 documentation](http://news.perlfoundation.org/2018/02/grant-proposal-curating-and-im.html)** (5,000 USD)
Voting results: Approved and funded: 5 yes, 1 abstention, 1 no with a score of 15 (1 vote of 4, 3 votes of 3, 1 vote of 2)
Some voters expressed concern about the comments/feedback posted on
the grant. It is our hope that the requestor will work closely with
the community when implementing this grant.
Future grants requestors should consider splitting PR and documentation work.
**[Perl Camp in Democratic Republic of Congo](http://news.perlfoundation.org/2018/02/grant-proposal-perl-camp-in-de.html)** (4,000 USD)
Voting results: Rejected: 0 yes, 7 no
This proposal was rejected primarily due to the timing, but several
members expressed a secondary concern that this was a proposal for an
event. The main comment on the proposal suggests that event proposals
may have better luck working with the events committee.
